INSTALLING EPDM ROOFING TO TIMBER SURFACES

The surface must be flat, clean, grease-free and dry. Determine the correct position on the roof based on the supplied roll-out sketch. Let the EPDM roofing hang completely over the edges and let it relax for approx. 30 minutes for optimal installation. Follow these step by step guidelines:

Bonding the central roof surface:

• Half fold back the EPDM membrane.

• Mark 150 mm from the edge using a chalk line. 

• Apply the Bonding Adhesive WB adhesive to the timber surface with a flece roller (do not apply to the 150 mm perimeters and the upstands).

• Roll the EPDM back into the adhesive.

• Brush the roofing lightly with a soft broom. Repeat the above steps to the other half of the roof surface.

Edge fixation

• Spray the remaining 150 mm of the roof surface and the upstands with CONTACT ADHESIVE SPRAYBOND.

• When the conact adhesive is touch dry, the EPDM is to ready to apply, avoid trapped air whilst applying. Always work from the middle to the sides. Use a flat hand to wipe the EPDM into the edges and against the upstands

• Compress the EPDM well with a silicone roller.
